Reports on transformation, stoning, the release of devils and thunderbolts

Sayyiduna Suhar al-Abdi (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The Hour will not be established until various tribes are swallowed up by the earth, until it is said: 'Who is left of Banu so-and-so?'" The narrator says: When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used the word 'tribes', I understood that the Arabs were meant, because non-Arabs are identified by their towns.
Ahmad recorded it, and al-Tabarani, Abu Ya'la and al-Bazzar recorded it, and its narrators are thiqat (trustworthy).

Sayyidah Buqayrah (may Allah be pleased with her), the wife of Sayyiduna Qa'qa' (may Allah be pleased with him), narrates: I was sitting on the women's platform, and I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), during a sermon, pointing with his left hand and saying: "O people! When you hear that a sinking into the earth has taken place here, then it will mean that the Hour is about to come."
Ahmad and al-Tabarani recorded it. Its chain contains Ibn Ishaq, who is a mudallis (one who conceals defects in the chain), and the remaining narrators of one of Ahmad's chains are the narrators of the Sahih.

Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "In the time when the Hour draws near, thunderbolts will strike a great deal, until a man will come and say: 'On whom among you did a thunderbolt fall this morning?' And they will reply: 'It fell on so-and-so and so-and-so.'"
Ahmad recorded it from Muhammad bin Mus'ab, and he is da'if (weak).

Junadah bin Abi Umayyah narrates that he heard Sayyiduna Ubadah bin al-Samit (may Allah be pleased with him) relate that a man came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: O Messenger of Allah! How long will the period of ease of your Ummah last? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) gave him no answer, until he had asked the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) three times, and each time the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not answer him. The man went away, then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Where is the one who asked?" The people brought him back to him. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "You have asked me about something that no one has asked me about. The period of ease of my Ummah will be one hundred years." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said this twice, or perhaps three times. Then the man said: O Messenger of Allah! Will there be any sign, indication or token of that?

Some people of my Ummah will spend the night in arrogance, insolence, play and amusement, and in the morning they will have become apes and swine, because they will be treating forbidden things as lawful, they will have kept singing girls, they will be drinking wine, they will be consuming usury (riba), and they will be wearing silk."

So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) seated me in front of him, passed his hand over my head and said: "O little Anas! After me the Muslims will found various cities, and among the cities they found will be one called Basrah. If you go there, keep away from its places of amusement, its market and the door of its ruler, for there will be the punishment of sinking into the earth, transformation and being pelted with stones there.
